Knew that moon set was after midnight so i planned to get up before dawn to take photos. A rather warm night, so winds started to blow in by daylight whereby trees blocking wind was preferential for self and camera. This photo was taken with camera tripod down to only one legs open as I sat on the ground looking toward the Milky Way galaxy with the camera lens open to 25 seconds to capture all the stars in their splendid glory without a single airplane entering the view. Sublime. ^_^
